create

Create a configuration describing a component to be deployed on OpenShift Container Platform. If a component name is not provided, it is autogenerated.

By default, builder images are used from the current namespace. To explicitly supply a namespace, use: odo create namespace/name:version. If a version is not specified, the version defaults to latest.

Use odo catalog list to see a full list of component types that can be deployed.

Example using create
  # Create new Node.js component with the source in current directory.
  odo create nodejs

  # A specific image version may also be specified
  odo create nodejs:latest

  # Create new Node.js component named 'frontend' with the source in './frontend' directory
  odo create nodejs frontend --context ./frontend

  # Create a new Node.js component of version 6 from the 'openshift' namespace
  odo create openshift/nodejs:6 --context /nodejs-ex

  # Create new Wildfly component with binary named sample.war in './downloads' directory
  odo create wildfly wildfly --binary ./downloads/sample.war

  # Create new Node.js component with source from remote git repository
  odo create nodejs --git https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex.git

  # Create new Node.js git component while specifying a branch, tag or commit ref
  odo create nodejs --git https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex.git --ref master

  # Create new Node.js git component while specifying a tag
  odo create nodejs --git https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex.git --ref v1.0.1

  # Create new Node.js component with the source in current directory and ports 8080-tcp,8100-tcp and 9100-udp exposed
  odo create nodejs --port 8080,8100/tcp,9100/udp

  # Create new Node.js component with the source in current directory and env variables key=value and key1=value1 exposed
  odo create nodejs --env key=value,key1=value1

  # For more examples, visit: https://github.com/openshift/odo/blob/master/docs/examples.adoc
  odo create python --git https://github.com/openshift/django-ex.git

  # Passing memory limits
  odo create nodejs --memory 150Mi
  odo create nodejs --min-memory 150Mi --max-memory 300 Mi

  # Passing cpu limits
  odo create nodejs --cpu 2
  odo create nodejs --min-cpu 200m --max-cpu 2

delete

Delete an existing component.

Example using delete
  # Delete component named 'frontend'.
  odo delete frontend
  odo delete frontend --all

describe

Describe the given component.

Example using describe
  # Describe nodejs component
  odo describe nodejs

Link a component to a service or component.

Example using link
  # Link the current component to the 'my-postgresql' service
  odo link my-postgresql

  # Link component 'nodejs' to the 'my-postgresql' service
  odo link my-postgresql --component nodejs

  # Link current component to the 'backend' component (backend must have a single exposed port)
  odo link backend

  # Link component 'nodejs' to the 'backend' component
  odo link backend --component nodejs

  # Link current component to port 8080 of the 'backend' component (backend must have port 8080 exposed)
  odo link backend --port 8080

Link adds the appropriate secret to the environment of the source component. The source component can then consume the entries of the secret as environment variables. If the source component is not provided, the current active component is assumed.

list

List all the components in the current application.

Example using list
  # List all components in the application
  odo list

log

Retrieve the log for the given component.

Example using log
  # Get the logs for the nodejs component
  odo log nodejs

login

Log in to the cluster.

Example using login
  # Log in interactively
  odo login

  # Log in to the given server with the given certificate authority file
  odo login localhost:8443 --certificate-authority=/path/to/cert.crt

  # Log in to the given server with the given credentials (basic auth)
  odo login localhost:8443 --username=myuser --password=mypass

  # Log in to the given server with the given credentials (token)
  odo login localhost:8443 --token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

logout

Log out of the current OpenShift Container Platform session.

Example using logout
  # Log out
  odo logout

preference

Modify odo specific configuration settings within the global preference file.

Example using preference
  # For viewing the current preferences
  odo preference view

  # Set a preference value in the global preference
  odo preference set UpdateNotification false
  odo preference set NamePrefix "app"
  odo preference set Timeout 20

  # Unset a preference value in the global preference
  odo preference unset  UpdateNotification
  odo preference unset  NamePrefix
  odo preference unset  Timeout

By default, the path to the global preference file is ~/.odo/preferece.yaml and it is stored in the environment variable GLOBALODOCONFIG. You can set up a custom path by setting the value of the environment variable to a new preference path, for example GLOBALODOCONFIG="new_path/preference.yaml"

Table 2. Available Parameters:

NamePrefix

The default prefix is the current directory name. Use this value to set a default name prefix.

  # Delete storage mystorage from the currently active component
  odo storage delete mystorage

  # Delete storage mystorage from component 'mongodb'
  odo storage delete mystorage --component mongodb
  # List all storage attached or mounted to the current component and
  # all unattached or unmounted storage in the current application
  odo storage list

Unlink component or a service.

For this command to be successful, the service or component must have been linked prior to the invocation using odo link.

Example using unlink
  # Unlink the 'my-postgresql' service from the current component
  odo unlink my-postgresql

  # Unlink the 'my-postgresql' service  from the 'nodejs' component
  odo unlink my-postgresql --component nodejs

  odo update frontend --local ./frontend

  # Change the source code path of a currently active component to git
  odo update --git https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex.git

  # Change the source code path of the component named node-ex to git
  odo update node-ex --git https://github.com/openshift/nodejs-ex.git

  # Change the source code path of the component named wildfly to a binary named sample.war in ./downloads directory
  odo update wildfly --binary ./downloads/sample.war

url

Expose a component to the outside world.

Example using url
  # Create a URL for the current component with a specific port
  odo url create --port 8080

  # Create a URL with a specific name and port
  odo url create example --port 8080

  # Create a URL with a specific name by automatic detection of port (only for components which expose only one service port)
  odo url create example
